Clinton National Lead Steady at 5 Points[Trunc] [PPP D+9 Clinton +5]
PPP ^ | 8/30/16 | Tom Jensen

Posted on 08/30/2016 10:25:53 AM PDT by BigEdLB

PPP's newest national poll finds a pretty steady race- but that the candidates are getting even more unpopular as the election approaches, with undecideds actually going up when they would usually be on the decline at this stage in the campaign. Hillary Clinton leads with 42% to 37% for Donald Trump, 6% for Gary Johnson, 4% for Jill Stein, and 1% for Evan McMullin, with 10% of voters still undecided. A month ago Clinton actually led 46/41 but both she and Trump's support has dropped by 4 points, with support for third party candidates increasing from 8% to 11% and the level of undecideds increasing from 5% to 10%. It's a similar story in the head to head- Clinton's 5 point lead is the same as a month ago, but now it's 48/43 instead of 50/45 with undecideds increasing from 5% to 9%.

Ludicrous questions asked by a Donk pollster comparing Trump to various bad things. I imagine Trump supporters hung up on the pollsters when they started to ask about this. Comparing Trump to Bubonic Plague and Bedbugs. Pollsters think they are being cute, but it hurts their standing for seriousness... Plus black voter is low single digits.

Right, and PPP is a Democrat party polling outfit. ..I’d say Trump is really ahead.

If those numbers are valid I fear for America With that number of ignorant citizens roaming the streets motor vehicle accidents should increase significantly. Maroons!

The race has remained remarkably stable for months.

When you look at the average of all the polls, Hillary has been very steady at 42% while Trump has been very steady at 38% for nearly the entire race, except for a 3 week period surrounding each candidates convention.

When you look at the polls ... the race doesn’t even appear to have started. Both are still exactly where they were at the start.

It was meant to get Trump supporters to hang up, IMHO. But D+9 sample when Barry S. was +6 four years ago is nuts. Even so she is only +5.

I don’t believe a single poll out there to tell me the time of day. They just make up the numbers because of their left-wing politics won’t let them say Trump is winning.

Expect a massive “correction” of those number just before the election so they don’t look entirely foolish and unreliable.

Right, and paint Trump for undecideds as a flawed and not serious candidate.

Here are some of the nutty questions. I must be a Luddite. What is a Carnie? Then look at the 2012 vote question. What is that?

A D+9 sample sounds too generous to the Dems for me and the fact that Hillary only sports a 5-point lead even with that suggests that this race is indeed tightening.

Trump leads with plus 4 D splits, probably right in line with USC and the “other” PPP.
